kpac_dhcp_helper − provides Proxy Auto Configuration to KDE
kpac_dhcp_helper
Provides Proxy
Auto Configuration to KDE by requesting a JavaScript
function that uses the requested URL to determine the proxy
settings. Locating that JavaScript can be done by using DHCP
or DNS.
DHCP is preferred for its flexibility over DNS, which
requires a wpad
hostname or a fixed location to a script. The only
requirements for
DHCP are a network that supports DHCP and a current DHCP
configuration.
kpac_dhcp_helper is the setuid application needed to
support DHCP.
This tool is a support utility for KDE libraries and is not
called from
the command line.
kpac_dhcp_helper takes no arguments.
kpac_dhcp_helper must be used as setuid root.
